Reply To: What rejected scores would you like to get released/recorded?
Talking about Desplat. Just listened to a German review of Del Toro’s Frankenstein where the critic called Desplat “the talentless son of Tschaikowsky and Johann Strauss” and his music in that movie “might be good enough for candy commercials but that’s it”.
On the movie itself the critic said something interesting. Frankenstein’s ambition was to create life from dead material, but Del Toro goes the opposite way and creates only overstyled lifeless images of that world.
Sorry. I know, it’s off topic, but I didn’t know where to put it.
